其他答案已经演示了您应该如何做到这一点。这里有一种方法你不应该:

>>> def foo(counter=[0]):
...   counter[0] += 1
...   print("Counter is %i." % counter[0]);
... 
>>> foo()
Counter is 1.
>>> foo()
Counter is 2.
>>> 

默认值仅在函数第一次求值时初始化，而不是每次执行时初始化，因此可以使用列表或任何其他可变对象来存储静态值。

我个人更喜欢下面的装饰。各有各的。

def staticize(name, factory):
    """Makes a pseudo-static variable in calling function.

    If name `name` exists in calling function, return it. 
    Otherwise, saves return value of `factory()` in 
    name `name` of calling function and return it.

    :param name: name to use to store static object 
    in calling function
    :type name: String
    :param factory: used to initialize name `name` 
    in calling function
    :type factory: function
    :rtype: `type(factory())`

    >>> def steveholt(z):
    ...     a = staticize('a', list)
    ...     a.append(z)
    >>> steveholt.a
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'a'
    >>> steveholt(1)
    >>> steveholt.a
    [1]
    >>> steveholt('a')
    >>> steveholt.a
    [1, 'a']
    >>> steveholt.a = []
    >>> steveholt.a
    []
    >>> steveholt('zzz')
    >>> steveholt.a
    ['zzz']

    """
    from inspect import stack
    # get scope enclosing calling function
    calling_fn_scope = stack()[2][0]
    # get calling function
    calling_fn_name = stack()[1][3]
    calling_fn = calling_fn_scope.f_locals[calling_fn_name]
    if not hasattr(calling_fn, name):
        setattr(calling_fn, name, factory())
    return getattr(calling_fn, name)

在尝试了几种方法后，我最终使用了@warvariuc的答案的改进版本:

import types

def func(_static=types.SimpleNamespace(counter=0)):
    _static.counter += 1
    print(_static.counter)

您可以向函数添加属性，并将其用作静态变量。

def myfunc():
  myfunc.counter += 1
  print myfunc.counter

# attribute must be initialized
myfunc.counter = 0

或者，如果你不想在函数外部设置变量，你可以使用hasattr()来避免AttributeError异常:

def myfunc():
  if not hasattr(myfunc, "counter"):
     myfunc.counter = 0  # it doesn't exist yet, so initialize it
  myfunc.counter += 1

无论如何，静态变量是相当罕见的，您应该为这个变量找到一个更好的位置，最有可能是在类中。

你可以创建一个所谓的“函数对象”，并给它一个标准的(非静态的)成员变量，而不是创建一个具有静态局部变量的函数。

既然你给出了一个c++编写的例子，我将首先解释什么是c++中的“函数对象”。“函数对象”就是任何带有重载操作符()的类。类实例的行为类似于函数。例如，你可以写int x = square(5);即使square是一个对象(带有重载操作符())，从技术上讲也不是一个“函数”。你可以给一个函数对象任何你可以给一个类对象的特性。

# C++ function object
class Foo_class {
    private:
        int counter;     
    public:
        Foo_class() {
             counter = 0;
        }
        void operator() () {  
            counter++;
            printf("counter is %d\n", counter);
        }     
   };
   Foo_class foo;

在Python中，我们也可以重载operator()，除非该方法被命名为__call__:

下面是一个类定义:

class Foo_class:
    def __init__(self): # __init__ is similair to a C++ class constructor
        self.counter = 0
        # self.counter is like a static member
        # variable of a function named "foo"
    def __call__(self): # overload operator()
        self.counter += 1
        print("counter is %d" % self.counter);
foo = Foo_class() # call the constructor

下面是一个使用这个类的例子:

from foo import foo

for i in range(0, 5):
    foo() # function call

打印到控制台的输出是:

counter is 1
counter is 2
counter is 3
counter is 4
counter is 5

如果你想让你的函数接受输入参数，你也可以将它们添加到__call__:

# FILE: foo.py - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

class Foo_class:
    def __init__(self):
        self.counter = 0
    def __call__(self, x, y, z): # overload operator()
        self.counter += 1
        print("counter is %d" % self.counter);
        print("x, y, z, are %d, %d, %d" % (x, y, z));
foo = Foo_class() # call the constructor

# FILE: main.py - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 

from foo import foo

for i in range(0, 5):
    foo(7, 8, 9) # function call

# Console Output - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 

counter is 1
x, y, z, are 7, 8, 9
counter is 2
x, y, z, are 7, 8, 9
counter is 3
x, y, z, are 7, 8, 9
counter is 4
x, y, z, are 7, 8, 9
counter is 5
x, y, z, are 7, 8, 9

def staticvariables(**variables):
    def decorate(function):
        for variable in variables:
            setattr(function, variable, variables[variable])
        return function
    return decorate

@staticvariables(counter=0, bar=1)
def foo():
    print(foo.counter)
    print(foo.bar)

就像上面vincent的代码一样，这将被用作函数装饰器，静态变量必须以函数名作为前缀访问。这段代码的优点(尽管每个人都可以聪明地看出这一点)是你可以有多个静态变量，并以更常规的方式初始化它们。
